My Therapy Services

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an evidence-based therapy that helps individuals heal from trauma and anxiety. At Perry Counseling, I provide EMDR therapy in Hendersonville, TN and the greater Nashville area, helping clients reprocess distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming. Using guided eye movements, tapping, or sounds, EMDR reduces emotional intensity, calms the nervous system, and improves anxiety and stress. 

Trauma Therapy and EMDR can help you:​

  • Reduce negative self-talk and core beliefs (e.g., “I’m not good enough”)

  • Process traumatic memories, flashbacks, and intrusive thoughts

  • Decrease anxiety, constant worry, and emotional overwhelm

  • Feel more calm, grounded, and in control

  • Build practical skills to manage daily stress

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach that helps individuals identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. At Perry Counseling, I provide CBT in Hendersonville, TN and the greater Nashville area, helping clients better understand the connection between their thoughts, emotions, and actions so they can feel more in control.

CBT is structured, goal-oriented, and focused on present challenges, making it highly effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and burnout. Through CBT, you’ll learn practical tools to manage overwhelming thoughts, improve emotional regulation, and create healthier, more balanced patterns in your daily life.

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a collaborative, evidence-based counseling approach that helps individuals build the internal motivation needed to create meaningful change. At Perry Counseling, I use motivational interviewing in Hendersonville, TN and the Nashville area to help clients explore ambivalence, strengthen commitment, and move forward with confidence.

Rather than giving direct advice, MI focuses on understanding your goals, values, and readiness for change. This approach is especially effective for individuals feeling stuck with anxiety, habits, life transitions, or behavioral changes, helping you tap into your strengths and create lasting, self-driven progress.
